Return home, to the body
Supporting group for women - care of themselves after the experience of trauma
framework "6 meetings" (March -Květ) It is intended for women who have experienced traumatic experience (experience of safety disruption) and feel that this experience continues to negatively affect their experience, physical well -being or relationship to themselves.
The experience of trauma, if it is not immediately put into safety, can move us away from the body or disconnect completely, causing the body not to feel, listen to it, or experiencing unfounded pain and physical symptoms. During support work, we can hear these body signals (re-) and we can focus on them in the area of safety, comfort and self-time.
During a series of six 1.5 hours of meetings, participants will be offered a safe space in which, despite a simple movement assignment, they can bring attention to themselves and to experience themselves through the body and movement. We will focus in particular on:
• awakening sensitivity to our own body and our own needs
• Creation and strengthening a sense of security in the body and in space
• realization and softening in your body run or feel free to freeze. Both answers are very tiring, even exhausting. Trauma is written unconsciously into the body and can sooner or later manifest itself as physical tension, pain (and clinically unfounded), anesthesia of body parts, disconnecting from the body, migraine and other unpleasant “symptoms”. However, these symptoms have a clear origin in the experience of trauma and work even after the trauma has passed - survive, endure and cope with disruption of their safety.
The participants will be invited to the idea and inherited a sense of security ("What does it mean to me safely? The quality of safety, comfort and reception will be explored and achieved through a moving body, listening to subtle physical needs and motives. In this movement work, it does not matter at all the form of movement, but it is an experience of movement that is therapeutic itself.
Each meeting will create space for reflection of experience, in writing in the intimacy of your own space and verbally within the group, with respect for the needs of each participant.
The strength of a group of women who experienced a demanding life situation lies in support, in the possibility of sharing and not feeling lonely in the experience of trauma. This is due to a deeper susceptible understanding and listening.
